There definitely should be side armour values. I know it would force Relic to add more algorithms and complicate things, but it's one of the features I most want to see added.

I haven't been matched against new players at all yet.

And then the 4 existing factions ruin everything because of the massive technological gap

Because of the need to create certain textures and effects exclusive to desert environments (like Brits in short-shorts), if you want to play in the African Theatre, you have to play as one of the African factions. Problem solved! Relic's thought of everything, I can't wait.

Shotguns. Another reason for USF players to blob.

WFA armies costs 20 euros or dollars i dunno, and this is just SP so:
1) Relic is bad financially and releases "this" to get easy money
2) Ardennes Assault is really good

Maybe it is really good.

Matrix Games releases their Close Combat games for around $50, and people have been complaining about that for ages. They use outdated graphics, and most of their CC games are just remakes of previous ones. They defend their pricing by saying it's a "niche market". Maybe Relic is taking a page out of their book and using similar pricing for a campaign that looks like it may be a bit like a 3-D CC game.
